Artifacts for Runemaster?

[Santa's little helper]

Hey people.

I was wondering which artifacts you were planning to include in your Template?

Was thinking of going: GoV, Maddeling scalars, Tablet of Atlantis, Tartaros' gift, cloudsong, Jacina's sash.

Feel free to come with pointers, etc. Bit many Artifacts, i know, which one would you include/Exclude? Zahur's crown?

Ceremonial Bracers is quite important

 

[vintervargen]

zahur if you use cinder sleeves, crafted if you use som boots, imo

Sorry can you explain that?

Why do you find CB importaint, Sevensins?

I would never get it for blocking a stun from a mincer, since it's utterly useless that way. And mez can be 5 min purged in NF.

.

cause it got +5 dexcap

Hmm, pretty ok mage artifacts if u wanna make op template imo

 

[jakob]

I would stear clear of Crown of Zahur if possible, since it has a tendency to screw up templates with its stats. Only thing it has going for it is the pierce chant, but since you will have 10% pierce anyway with tablet+jacina, then its a waste imo.

Yes, you should include ceremonial (remember to pick dex version, not caster version), dexcap is very important and the mezz/stun bt is just icing on the cake.

Vintervargen is talking about cinder sleeves, which are dexcap cloth sleeves from Battler, but sadly they do not drop in midgard. So forget about those.

My own template uses the same artifacts as you've mentioned, except I use Ceremonial and don't have Atlantis Tablet (I'm darkcarver, so pierce isn't that important, I'm gonna get AT or Eriny's Charm though if I end up respeccing).

You could argue that dexcap is the best way to raise DPS, but at the cost of power, which is true. But as a darkcarver I baseline nuke all the time (which consumes alot of power), and I don't think it's a problem with the Tartaros charge and mcl2. Nothing a couple of power potions can't handle anyway.

So, the items I would recommend you to look at are:
Ceremonial Bracer
Silksteel Soot Stained Boots
Immolated Ring (or Krojer's dexterity ring)

You should end up with 10%castspeed, 9% range, 9% magic damage, 20+ dexcap, 20%+ power pool and capped stats/decent resists in a good template.

I think that was all, let me know if you need help with template too.

Good posts - thanks!

 

[Dorin]

zahur chant aint screwing up pbt, like it does to skald speed song? afaik so at least.
(not like any rm speces that, but still wondering)

 

[rivan]

It's one thing creating a great template, it's quite another to actually get those artis, encounters, scrolls, then level the fookers.

MP cloth has become insanely expensive; I bought my entire set for about 1.5P off a guildy in SI. My sleeves cost 1P last week.

I would advise sticking to easy to aquire/level artis and not going OTT unless you're a really hardcore player and/or rich, especially for the zerg fest of NF.
